Why Give?
Our community of contributors, scholars, and volunteers is truly a partnership in “connecting people with ideas.”
While the Humanities Council’s mission is specific to New Hampshire, we are not part of the state government. We rely on contributions from individuals, corporations, foundations and civic organizations in order to offer free public programming that fosters lifelong
learning, reflection, and respectful conversation.
You can make a tax-deductable gift securely on-line.
2012 Annual Fund
For most organizations, particularly those in rural areas, the Humanities Council is the only source of affordable educational and cultural programming. Gifts made to the 2012 Annual Fund are unrestricted and have an immediate impact enabling libraries, historical societies and many other organizations to have access to high quality and innovative humanities programs.
Innovation, thoughtful conversation, and inspired civil debate are the hallmarks of an engaged citizenship. As we look to the past to live for today, the invested funds of the New Hampshire Humanities Council garner strength to ensure discussions in the future.
There are several easy, convenient ways to make planned or deferred gifts such as bequests, gift annuities, or charitable remainder
trusts or established an endowment fund. Each represents an important source of funding for our future plans and programs, and may also provide you with considerable taxsavings and other benefits in your estate.
Ways to Make a Gift
The New Hampshire Humanities Council thanks you in advance for considering a gift.
Gifts of Cash
The majority of gifts made to the Humanities Council come in the form of cash. A gift of cash entitles a donor to the most
generous federal income tax deduction available for charitable contributions. You can make a cash donation to the Annual Fund
securely on-line.
Marketable Securities
If you have investments that have grown in value since you first acquired them, then you may be able to take advantage of the income tax charitable deduction. You will be entitled to a tax deduction for the full market value of your gift (Fair Market Value), as long as you
have owned your investment for more than one year. Your gift of securities is valued on the date it reaches our stock account if
transferred electronically by your broker or, if mailed, on the date the envelope is postmarked.
